At five o'clock, Xue Xiang opened his eyes on time, then sat up, pulled the corner of the quilt that Su Meiren had lifted, and turned over and got out of the bed.

After putting on his clothes and washing up, he packed up the mess left in the hall last night. After cleaning it up, he went to the kitchen to boil the water, then carried a broom, and cleaned the courtyard.

Mr. Xue was quick-handed and quickly cleaned up all the snow and firecrackers in the yard in a moment.

Then he turned into the kitchen and the water just boiled, so he put the forty or fifty dumplings made of fresh shrimp stuffed yesterday into the pot.

He covered the pot and lifted the watch. It was almost six o'clock. He turned back to the room and woke up Su Meiren who was still staying in bed.

However, Su Meiren was too late yesterday, and she was very sleepy now. She was humming and refused to get up. At the end, she even reached out to pull Xue Xiang, and she made a charming sound like moans and words in her mouth, as if she wanted Xue Xiang to sleep with him.

It’s a big shot that Xue Anyuan, who is not at home, has made her new wife, have no tigers in the mountains and become the dominant oneself.

There was no way to deal with his pretty wife, so Xue Xiang had to turn into the other three rooms and barely woke Xiaowan up. Xiaoyi and the little guy were sleeping so hard that they could not move no matter how they shouted.

Now it is really no longer than earlier. In previous years, every New Year's Day, Xiaoyi and the little guy wanted to wake up in the middle of the night. They each carried their own bags and were so excited that they could walk around the main hall for half a day, waiting for dawn, so that they could go everywhere to pay New Year's greetings everywhere to earn New Year's money.

But in the past two years, they have been really annoyed to pay New Year's greetings. Without Xue Xiang, these two people refused to go anywhere and were willing to stay at home.

After shouting for a long time, no one paid attention. Xue Xiang estimated that the dumplings were almost cooked, so he turned into the hall again. He divided the ripe and floated dumplings into five bowls, mixed the sauce, poured them on a wooden plate, and went to the hall.

The fragrance of food is really much more powerful than Xue Laosan's shouting. He walked through the rooms one by one without even shouting. They all opened their eyes and sat up.

When I get up early in winter, someone brings food to the bed and eat around the quilt. That is a boundless enjoyment.

After a few bites of breakfast, Xue Xiang started to make charcoal fire again. The Republicans celebrate the New Year, so they should pay attention to prosperity.

Who would have thought that as soon as he had just made the fire, a few big lazy people who had washed them around came around, turned on the TV, and the ones who had the fruit tray.

What stunned Xue Xiang the most was that the four of them quickly formed a card game and started playing yesterday's upgrade again.

It’s fine for the third primary school. Su Meiren, a housewife and people’s teacher, was like nothing happened. She was shocked to see Xue Xiang and sighed inwardly, which really corresponded to the old saying: It’s not a family. Don’t enter the family.

The four of them had fun, and Xue Xiang was too lazy to scold and disturb him. After all, he was a weak and warm man.

In his opinion, the Spring Festival is a day for the family to celebrate reunion. If you work harder, as long as you can make these close relatives and beloved have fun, those common etiquettes will be avoided.

Besides, with the current status of the Xue family, except for those fixed families, there is no need to deliberately wish anyone a happy New Year.

It was already half past six, and Xue Xiang knew it was time to open the door and welcome the first wave of New Year greetings.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door, a noisy New Year greetings came from outside. It was obvious that this wave of people had been waiting by the door.

This wave was led by Fatty Zhang, Ma Liang and others, and Xue Xiang had made old friends in the capital official class, with a total of seven or eight people, each of whom was not empty.

Xue Xiang thought that these people could enter the hall, and the cards in the hall would be disbanded no matter how they were. But they didn't know that those gamblers were very good at fighting formations and actually transferred their positions. When Xue Xiang came into the hall, there were already no figures in the hall.

He had to treat him by himself, but he didn't know that the second wave of New Year greetings had come again before these people had sat down.

It should be said that the Xue family's current family is really profound, and ordinary officials cannot join such high-level families. However, the situation of the Xue family is special. Xue Anyuan is the head of the family, but Xue Xiang is in charge of the overall situation of the Xue family.

Therefore, visitors often correspond to Xue Laosan’s current level, so they are “mixed by water and land”. As long as they can get in touch, they dare to come to their door.

In this way, there are few people in the heads.

Just now, before Xue Xiang could even shake hands with the visitors one by one, someone arrived again.

Just like this, one after another, for three hours, the Xue family gate was like a cinema ticketing station, with people coming and going, without stopping for a moment.

Fortunately, these visitors also had a very eyebrow. They often put down their things and left to make room for later generations. Otherwise, the Xue family mansion would have to be crowded.

Fortunately, there will be a dry day in the East China Sea and there will be a bald time in Mount Tai. After 10:15, no one will come again for ten minutes.

Xue Xiang thought in his heart that everything he should come was almost there, and looked at the time. It was almost half past ten, and he knew it was time to go out.

After all, there are quite a few families I have to visit today, so according to his plan, it is best to finish it in the morning.

The matter was settled, and Xue Xiang was about to set off. He was still worried that he would go to greet the big guys. The little annoying spirit would pester him to go.

But when he went to the little guy's room and said hello and said that he was going out, the four people in the room were playing in a hurry and could hardly find energy to take care of him. So Su Meiren told him to lock the door when he went out.

Obviously, these people are very unaware of this new year greeting event.

Xue Xiang smiled bitterly, turned out, went to the storage room, picked up several simple but thoughtful gifts that he had prepared last night, and drove out.

The first one is naturally the old leader's house. It is said that going to be rude at this hour is already considered a rude, but I believe the old leader can understand the current situation of the Xue family.

It snowed last night, and it was the first day of the New Year again. The city covered with silver, with big red lanterns, Spring Festival couplets, and New Year pictures everywhere. Looking around, the whole city seemed to have become a world of red and white intertwined.

Xue Xiangbian Shang looked at the bustling along the street and drove the car very fast. In just over twenty minutes, he gathered at the plum garden of more than forty miles in Yutang Mountain and was in the distance.

Speaking of which, due to work needs, the old leader settled his home in Zhonghai and stayed there. He would still move back to the plum garden every year during the Spring Festival.

This time, Xue Xiang was still driving the jeep he usually drove. He was the one who wanted to enter the plum garden and had to fly another beast.

Fortunately, he had a special pass specially provided by Xue Anyuan, a political committee member. When the car was about to arrive at the gate of Meiyuan, he took the Dahong pass and posted it in front of the glass window. He crossed the whistle and opened the post, and it was really unobstructed.

After leaving the plum garden for many years, Xue Laosan was quite moved.

The endless wheat fields were covered with snow and covered with cotton. After passing a lush pine and cypress forest, they turned to the bamboo forest path. Before walking for more than ten steps, the bamboo forest path was divided into pieces, almost without any stagnation. Xue Laosan looked up and stepped on the left.

In fact, the right path was closer to the three large tiled houses of the old leader. The reason why Xue Laosan chose the left path was because he had walked this path well, and when he first came to Meiyuan, he also walked the left path.

For a guy with a serious illness, all kinds of firsts always have inexplicable special significance.

In addition, the more important reason is that the left road is closer to the wheat field, and more importantly, there is the most ingenious corridor in the plum garden beside the wheat field.

Every time when he comes to Meiyuan, what Xue Xiang wants to see most is not the old leader, but this gurgling stream. Who says this stream is as cheerful as a foal all year round, which is really gratifying.

Sure enough, just as I turned over the bamboo forest, the stream showed its true appearance. Before I could approach, the sound of the rushing water hitting the carefully designed bulging sounds of the carefully designed shores.

Hearing this pleasant sound, Xue Xiang's nervousness relieved a lot, and his feet were a little faster and he walked towards the stream.

Who would have thought that as soon as he reached the shore, he heard someone shouting, "Uncle, Happy New Year!"

Xue Laosan looked up and saw four or five half-aged children dressed very neatly and happily.

He hurriedly took out a stack of red envelopes that had been prepared from his pocket, and smiled and responded to the New Year words.

But when the children saw him take out the red envelope, they refused and one of them took a few steps back.

This humility was obviously like a little guy, and had received special instructions from his family.

"Hey, uncle, I have seen you. Six years ago, it was also here. You gave us red envelopes. This is the first time I have received a red envelope when I grew up. So, remember it very clearly. Thank you, uncle!"

The person who spoke was the leading tall girl. She looked about the same age as Xiaoyi. After speaking, she bowed politely to Xue Xiang.

Xue Xiang thought about it carefully and really remembered these children. Six years ago, on the first day of the first lunar month, it was also the bamboo forest, and the pile of snot children rushed over to wish him New Year's greetings, and asked for New Year's money when he spoke.

Six years have passed, and when they met them at the same time and at the same place, Xue Xiang’s heart is really warm.

"Come on, come on, take it all. The first red envelope you received was given by your uncle. Then let the uncle give you the last red envelope. Is it okay for us to start and end well? Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you!"

As he spoke, Xue Xiang extended the red envelope again.

Sure enough, the eyes of the dolls lit up. The tall girl tilted her head and thought for a while, and smiled sweetly, "Thank you uncle, no, thank you brother Xue Xiang. I heard my father say you. My name is Nannier, don't forget!"

This Nanni is the granddaughter of the old leader and the only daughter of Comrade Nanfang. She used to call her uncle on purpose, but pretended not to know Xue Xiang, so as not to listen to Xue Xiang's nagging about how you know me, and then changed her words now, so she was naturally satisfied with Xue Xiang and the kind-hearted and tactful guy.

But it was said that Nan Nier, the leading sister, received red envelopes, and there was no reason why the kids below didn’t want it.

Come on, which child doesn’t want red envelopes? It’s just because the family is under control, so he resists and says no.
